in the air, it doesnt really matter what colour it is.. why ? because at long distances your not gonna see the colour.. however when the aircraft's are grounded it could be a harder target.. atleast IRL
which is actually irrelevant cause if there a jet flying with 1000 kmh above you , you wont be able to do anything aginst it....even if you can see him 1 sec earlier...and AA vehicles dont look out for fighterjets with binoculars....they nowadays have some better ways of finding them nowadays
but i like the skin.... although most of the fighter-jets are simply grey...im missing that
I think it is mostly for viewing purposes only but dont get me wrong its sure does look way cooler than the original skin. Since the MIG flies so fast i dont think you get to really see the colours and maybe its sound will give it away. Unless you're talking pretty far range than maybe the camo might help since they cant hear you.
Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning.
It's actually to make them harder to distinguish via satalites, UAV's and so on. So if parked out at a run way on the sand it will be harder too distinguish. The reason most nato jets are grey is because they operate out of airbases which generally are fully cemented meaning a jet with desert/ect Camo would stand out whilst Grey does not
sicarrio, I need all jets (MiG 29, and both Su's) reskinned to Russian camo. It would be cool if you could do that. When you have something to show, just post a WIP thread in the Russian Project forums.
